Well I am guessing that you will all be expecting a super full update, but the truth is I just don't really have the time to blog at the moment. I have been slack on checking out my girls bloggies, I have not been bummed to update mine, I have not scrapped for oh soooooo long, nor have I brought any stash. I have stepped down from the DT over at scrapmojo, left my team on UKS, I have given up on scrapping completely for the moment, even my beloved issues of CK are sat unread, just flicked through on my desk since March! I am shocked with myself, but this pregnancy has seriously changed me.
All I want to do is sleep or lol about doing nothing. I am still working full time, trying to keep a home, sort out the nursery and get myself prepared for a huge event in my life. I am trying to sort out money matters and other stuff and everyday seems to roll into the other. My weekends end so fast and I don't seem to have enough time at all, but funny enough I don't mind this. I like being busy, I feel I have a purpose now..........................I am going to be a mummy in around 5 weeks. I cannot believe how slow it is going yet also cannot believe how fast it is coming around! Crazy huh, but I cannot decide if time is flying or slowing down for us!As for the nursery, we are getting there. The walls have been painted, the furniture has been put up, just the cot to go. I need to get it cleared out so I can give it another clean, hoover and tidy up and get everything in place. I am waiting for the curtains to arrive, somemore bedding and a few other bits. We have the blind to buy and get up and find a nice blanket box for her bedding to go. I have washed all her 0-3 mths clothes and ironed them all, but have noticed that I have run out of room, surprise surprise!!!
So I am 35 weeks pregnant tomorrow and now I am getting really excited. The baby's hospital bag is packed and mine is just about done. I am almost prepared to go ahead with this birth thingy, and I am still not scared or nervous, just excited in a weird way. I just want to meet our little miss. I am a crazy forgetful, emotional wreak at the moment, but I guess it is to be expected. I cry at silly things and lock up at work, post my keys as I am not in the next day but then realise I have left my bag inside with my house keys in and Steve doesn't have his!! I am losing the plot for sure and have to check things 3-4 times, it is like I have OCD!!! I hope this side effect does not last.
I leave work in just over 3 weeks and I cannot wait. All being well I should have around 2 weeks before she is due to get all the cleaning done and meals prepared. I am going to have a big cook-off and get some nutritious food frozen for my dinners, as Steve is going to wait till I am totally knackered till he has sometime off work. Steve's mum did say she would come down for a week and do all the housework and cooking for me but I think I would like this treat spread out over a few weeks, ie once or twice a week instead. That way I get a break for a few weeks and not just one!
I am not sure if I will get the chance to update before I have the baby and then when I will be able to keep my eyes open long enough to blog but I am coming back that is for sure. I am going to have a bit of a sort out, get myself a new header and re-invent my blog a bit. You know, new mummy, new me kinda thing! So keep an eye out for that. I will however reply to any emails ect I get but I may be a bit slow. You can email me by clicking on my blog profile and it gives you an option. I will be checking blogs today and will carry on checking them but will not always leave comments, but I have not forgot about you!
Right, I am going to dash now and get blogs read. I want to wish my Mum and Dad a very happy wedding anniversary, love to ya both!! So as Tigger would day ttfn!!

Chika!
You forgot to send me your snail mail addy! Or I forgot to ask...lol!
Helloooo!!!!
Great to hear from you!!!! Yes I am afraid maternal intincts (sp?) kick in and everything else gets but on the back burner!!! Your joy of scrapping will not go away it's just sleeping at the moment, and once you have a routine sorted out, I am sure you will be back scrapping again!!!
I too would love to send the little Miss something, love the wardrobe full of oh so cute and sweet clothes!!!
I am so happy for you!!! Just a very quick post once you are home to let us know all is okay!!!! And once you are back in the full swing, we will expect lots of cute photos!!!
Talking about photos, I would of loved to go on a photo course with you as you sound like soooo much fun, but I am doing NVQ Level 3 in Childcare for the next 2 years, so I really honsetly don't think I would have the time, what a bummer!!!!! Thanks for asking!!!
On gosh I have just wrote a book, lol
Take care and I will be thinking and sending you and your family good and happy wishes.

You're looking really well & positively blooming!
Enjoy all the preparation & I agree get the cook off done & let people help a few days a week so it spreads it out nicely. Remember to eat & sleep & once missy is here it is even more important to do the same.Get plenty of cosy sleeps together on the sofa & enjoy motherhood. Eventually you will have tiny fingers & toes to scrap & you will go great guns in your fabulous pink eclectic style.xx
you are going to be the most perfect mummy!!!
but you need to scrap again once she is born girl!
i can not wait to see her!
So glad to hear you are doing well and the pregnancy is progressing well! Can't wait to "meet" the little one!
Best Wishes!
Melissa
Wow you look great! Your so lucky to be near the end and you have all her clothes in a press, my babys clothes are still in bags with tags on! But I have 10 and a bit weeks to go. Its so exciting!
Glad to hear from you again!! You look wonderful, glad you're doing ok!! It's busy those last weeks and I can understand you stepped down at MoJo, but... I'm sorry you did!!
Love the clothes for little miss.. take care sweetie, and I hope to hear from you soon!!! (I'll be gone in a week for 3 weeks holidays to Holland!!)
Good to hear from you babes!!! Dont blame you for the change in priorities, the scrapping can wait!! Cant believe its only 5 weeks away!! Get as much rest as you can (easier said than done I know). Cant wait to see some finished pics of the nursery. Take care of yourself & the little lady. xx
Im so excited for you! It will come soon. She is going to be beautiful! Just like her mama. Ill keep you in my prayers that everything goes stellar. Love ya girlie!

Oh, you have such an amazing time ahead of you. Makes me miss it so bad when I see your beautiful picture. :)
i CANNOT believe you are already so far along...i am so happy for ya'll...you will start scrapping again when the baby is born because you will be overflowed with documenting milestones and building that baby book...take a break...being on DT's and forced scrapping will suck your mojo straight from you!! believe me....
i miss and love ya girly!! take care and i will be awaiting the next update!!
**muah**
Im getting nervous sweets,are you???That closet looks divine!Look at all those pink thingies :D
Hey sweetie, how are you doing? Still hanging in there? Hope you are fine, and the little miss too!!! Have a great weekend!! I'll miss you for 3 weeks, but I'm gonna catch up asap when I get back!
I'm completely shocked to read that you had to quit the mojo team. I'll miss you lots. I hope you find time someday to come back and participate in a challenge or two. 5 weeks is just around the corner! And that little girl has a ton of clothing. OMG! Love that her closet is full and she isn't here yet. Glad to read that everything is alright. I hear being pregnant makes you very tired. Lots of love!
